Easy DIY Spring Wreath.

March 17, 2014 milabassett 8 Comments

Spring is (slowly) making its way here in Texas. Over the weekend my 7 year old and I decided it is time to acknowledge the beginning of Spring, and made this simple wreath.Easy DIY spring wreath And of course, as soon as we hung it on the door, another cold front blew through, complete with a drizzle (yes, that’s a cold front in Texas), grey skies, and strong winds. The wreath did not budge– the Spring is here to stay!

We had a blast making the wreath. My daughter kept saying “It is SO much fun!”  IMG_2610

Pulling off stray leaves was the essential first step, we had a volunteer to help us out:IMG_2609

It was our first wreath and we like how it turned out.spring wreath on the door

It was actually a really easy DIY, thanks to this great tutorial from Ann who writes her blog On Sutton Place. She has a ton of inspirational ideas and tips on DIY home decor, sewing, and  great recipes, and her house is beautiful!

My daughter suggested that for a Summer version of this wreath, we should replace the nest with a butterfly. I like how the girl  thinks!

    It’s beautiful, Mila! I like your daughter’s idea. I thought that wreath looked like Ann’s On Sutton Place! I bet she will be flattered that you made it. It came out great!

      Yes, it has been beautiful here lately! I know it won’t last for long, we will move to high 90s before we know it! I wonder what kind of climate your area of Portugal has?
